And David said to Joab, and to the rulers of the people, Go, numto Dan, and bring the number of ber Israel, from Beer-sheba even them to me, that I may know it. And Joab answered, The LORD make his people an hundred times lord the king, are they not all my so many more as they be: but, my lord's servants? why then doth my lord require this thing? why will he be a cause of trespass to Israel? Nevertheless the king's word prevailed against Joab: wherefore out all Israel, and came to JeruJoab departed, and went through

of the number of the people unto David. And all they of Israel were

a thousand thousand and an hundred thousand men that drew sword: and Judah was four hundred threescore and ten thous and men that drew sword. But Levi and Benjamin counted he not among them: for the king's word was abominable to Joab. And God was displeased with this thing, therefore he smote Israel. And David said unto God, I have done this thing: but now, I besinned greatly, because I have seech thee, do away the iniquity of thy servant; for I have done very
